The nature of Earth is to hold space and to create context. This qi node sets the stage for the coming summer and gives us insight into how we dealt with the qi of last Fall.
In a palace shaped by seasons, Yang rises from a spark to a blazing emperor before fading into shadow. Yin, steady and wise, expands through stillness and reflection. This tale of cosmic succession weaves through joy, unraveling, and return—an eternal dance of power, presence, and the rhythm of time.
Many people are surprised to learn how much Chinese medicine can treat. At Root and Branch, we support everything from chronic issues to acute illnesses, stress to digestion. We may not be primary care on paper—but we’re here to be your first call when something’s not right.
Yang Qi emerges clear and bright at this time of the year, finally strong enough to start really doing things.

Finally we can begin to feel the change in the balance of Yin and Yang in our environments. It’s still not time to go out and be super active, spending loads of time outside and getting sweaty but the change is coming. Use this node to finalize your Spring plans and get thinking about what you’ll want to do with the long days of Summer.
The Yin Wood Snake year winds in softly, asking us to move with quiet purpose. In a world obsessed with doing, this is a year for tending, composting, and deliberate growth. Wisdom won’t shout—it will whisper. And if you listen, you just might hear your own transformation beginning.
This first qi node of the year is not a season, but a threshold. A moment when the frozen ground stirs, and the world begins to breathe again. In Chinese medicine, it marks the return of Yang, the reawakening of Wood energy, and the slow stretch toward growth. Not all at once. Not with urgency. Just enough to remind us: change is already underway.
